Chapter 907: Similar in a Dream
"Like clouds in the sky", this view cannot be practiced in ordinary places, only those who live on the top of the mountain can practice, and if you want to meditate on a lonely peak, you can't sit on a knot, you have to sit with a lion, support your hands, and watch the sea of clouds and enter into concentration.
Slowly, one's body turns into a cloud, and when it receives yin, it becomes empty, and it is easy to enter the empty samadhi.
"Like water foam", this practice is also real, and it is different from the waterside forest cultivation method mentioned above.
As far as I know, the method of water foam is not very preachable, because according to the Buddhist scriptures, this method is the practice of the Dragon Palace.
However, this news is also revealed in the "Lengyan Sutra", and among the twenty-five kinds of Yuantong methods, there is a Bodhisattva who cultivates the concept of water.
The Central Plains bhikshuni cultivated the water view, which is recorded in the "Biography of the Bhikshunis".
The bhikshuni was in the room to make a view of water, and the disciple came to tell her to eat, but there was no one to see, but the whole room was full of water, so the disciple picked up a pebble and threw it into the water.
After Master made up his mind, he felt a pain in his chest, as if something was inside.
After calling the apprentice to understand what had happened, he told the apprentice to wait and go back to the room and pick up the stones from the water.
So the bhikshuni went back to the room to meditate on the water, and the disciple took the stones, and she was fine again.
You laughed, this is not a novel! It's real kung fu, and when you have cultivated it, you've reached the illusionary samadhi.
"Like a bubble on water", this water foam gathering is two special practices, which are the cultivation methods of the Dragon Palace and the cultivation methods of all beings in the water tribe.
"Like Basho Jian", let me tell you an experience, I can be considered a stupid person, but I can also be said to be very smart.
Why? I often say that successful people in the world are the smartest people who take the stupidest path and will definitely succeed.
Smart people take the smart path and fail 100 percent, and many of your young classmates make this mistake.
When I read Buddhist scriptures and talked about plantains, of course I had seen banana trees, but I didn't understand the metaphors of Buddhist scriptures, so I went to cut down a banana tree, and then forced it open, only to see that the middle was empty.
It is not just a plantain tree, but the center of everything in the world is empty.
For example, the pit of a peach, if you knock it open the left and right halves, the middle is also empty; The grain of rice we eat is also empty in the middle; The center of our hair is also empty; This is the Dharma.
There is a scolding phrase "hollow boss", which means that people are empty and unreal.
For example, where is the cultivation of Bashojian? A person who has achieved the attainment of cultivating qi and vein, and when he reaches this realm, he feels that his body is a skin, and the middle is empty, and he is in the realm of thoughtlessness at any time, and his body is also empty.
All the Red Sects, White Sects, and Flower Sects, and the methods of cultivating the Qi Vein, are this method.
"If electricity lives for a long time", the plantain is not strong, and the electricity will not live for a long time, here Master Kumarosh he turned it wonderfully! The lightning flashes and it's gone, but it really exists, you don't look at it, a moment is a thousand autumns, a thousand autumns are a moment.
This kind of cultivation is to see the light, and when we cultivate to the point where the light and I are one, and we enter the realm of emptiness, which is the illusory samadhi.
The Vimala Sutra uses ten metaphors from the Buddhist scriptures to tell us both secretly and clearly how a bodhisattva can attain the state of samadhi in a dreamlike reality.
Why did Gen-la Kumarosh make some variations of the ten parables when he translated them?
He didn't mention "like a dream" or "like an illusion", because it was an illusion itself, and he didn't mention it like a dream.
Whether this is the original Sanskrit text, I don't know.
Matsu's disciple Nanquan Zen Master said: "When people see this flower, it is similar to in a dream. "This is all the real realm, and you have to practice to this realm, and you can't just twist your nose and realize it, even if you cut your nose.
